The President is like the teacher that use to make you talk in class when you didn't want too.
These folks are doing good on the spot!
Did anyone see how triggered Philip Mudd got on CNN with Paris, about security clearances??
Something seems fishy there. If he still has a clearance, the President needs to take!
Sorry don't know how to get the video on here, but it's on twitter.
